The State of After-School Programs: Results of a National Survey on Programming during a Pandemic
Kurtz, Holly; Lloyd, Sterling; Harwin, Alex; Guo, Beilei
Editorial Projects in Education
The disruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic produced new challenges for students and schools. Many students missed out on academic content and faced social isolation during remote learning. After-school activities may be one option for assisting students and providing educational or social-emotional support as they recover lost ground. But the challenges of the pandemic--ranging from staffing issues to economic turmoil--might impact the capacity of after-school programs to offer services. To assess the current state of after-school programs, the EdWeek Research Center conducted a nationally representative survey of school principals and after-school employees between May and June of 2022. The survey examined the types of activities that programs provide, perceptions of pandemic-related changes, and hiring or retention difficulties. This report highlights survey findings.
